Wet weather

Well its been a wild week, with storms coming through the area every day and all of them bringing massive amounts of water I have been a busy bee trying to cover as much of the storms as possible. The biggest thing I have to say about it is Californians are really really really stupid when it comes to driving in the rain. Not only do they drive way too fast on the freeways, but their complete disregard for signs that say " Road Closed" completely amazes me. Every day this week there were swift water rescues do to people seeing a road closed sign, a fast moving roadway of water, and thinking I bet I can make it.




Other than mass of people trying to turn their family-grocery-getter into an aqua-car, there was also an amazing amount of water, and not that many places for it to go. So roads quickly turned into rivers, which turn into lakes. I was really shocked to see some of the roads I normally drive down transformed into huge bodies of water, that could only be navigated by boat.
